Obama’s Communism- hiding in plain sight
As I consider the reaction to my statement that Obama is a communist, I realize how thoroughly the Obama faction’s media claque takes advantage of the ignorance even of those who are supposed to be educated and sophisticated spokespeople for conservative views. In this respect I am somewhat disadvantaged by my relatively small stake in this ignorance when it comes to political theory and ideology. For instance, people tend to associate the term “communist” with the violent takeover of government and society. Yet a thoroughly committed communist like Italy’s Antonio Gramsci developed an understanding of the nature of political control, and therefore the path to power over a society, far more sophisticated than Marx’s economic determinism. (Or was it in fact a more sophisticated understanding of economics?) It was therefore better suited to understanding and exploiting the “ideological” (i.e., spiritual and moral) vulnerabilities of the opponents of communism. In particular, his theories allowed for far greater use of cultural influences (the news and entertainment media, churches and other religious institutions, movements like “gay rights” that contribute to the destruction of moral institutions like the family, etc.) than some people associate with the term “communism”. They helped later leftists to understand, explain and avoid (by learning from and adapting the enemy’s tactics) defeats like those that fascism inflicted on mid-twentieth century communism in Italy and elsewhere.
Reading Gramsci, one senses that he is looking at the intellectual framework for the Obama faction’s secret strategic plan. As Sherlock Holmes knew, there’s sometimes no hiding place more secure than one that is in plain sight. Especially in an era when the leftist takeover of education produces fewer and fewer people in each generation who bother to read books, especially the ones without pictures in them. (There’s a good summary of Gramsci’s thinking at http://www.theory.org.uk/ctr-gram.htm)

Most Americans have never heard of the leftist End Game, if they did they would understand where Obama intends to take America.
Historically leftists have believed Socialism/Marxism can only be achieved through deceit, lies and sacrificing anyone to advance their cause. Obama has already sacrificed the trust of Americans, repeatedly lied about most everything since he took office, and in the run up to the White House duped middle of the road Democrats to elect him President. Now Obama is ready to sacrifice the entire Democratic Party next election, giving amnesty to 12 million illegal immigrants.
Middle of the road Democrats just can’t understand why Obama will throw them under the bus in November if he can get amnesty first for 12 million illegal immigrants. Obama wants to insure that when he leaves office, 12 million illegal immigrants can stay in the U.S., and the border is still open so 12 million more illegal immigrants can enter America; that will insure Obama’s leftist constituency can find back to back—several million foreign born residents to push for a Socialist U.S. Government. Do Americans actually think anything they say in protest will discourage Mexican illegal immigrants moving to their state? Mexican illegal immigrants come from a country where force is commonplace. But illegal immigrants do understand getting arrested by police and that is why they have to stop Arizona’s new anti-immigration law. Arizona’s new law threatens the leftist agenda that includes overburdening financially U.S. Government, local and state infrastructures to cause economic chaos.
Leftists/Marxists historically move on democracies to take power when things are in chaos. Obama is now in position to cause that chaos. But unexpectedly, to the dismay of the left, Americans in state after state are standing up to support Arizona. If the Arizona law passes in enough states, and amnesty does not pass, the leftists will have lost a strong weapon to destroy America.
Consequently leftists have become Desperate and are now in the process of trying to consolidate 170 liberal and civil rights groups into a coalition to match the Tea Party’s political energy and influence—this should be taken seriously. The first question: “Who are the players behind this new liberal coalition?” Historically in America leftists have displayed a victim mentality, giving up, not voting after the political tide turned against them as it has now. Obama as a Presidential candidate managed to motivate and hold leftist factions together; and gained the support of ethic groups that prior were at odds. However since the election Obama’s policies have fractured the left, Obama has lost most Independents. So who is going to organize and motivate the new coalition of 170 liberal and civil rights groups? In other countries, to affect the outcome of elections, extreme leftists have formed liberal and human rights coalitions that covertly were coordinated by Communists and labor unions.
Typically when communists are concerned they will lose an election(s), they cause chaos including violent protests to obscure important issues and disseminate false information to confuse voters to vote for leftist candidates. In America should Communists be identified, playing an integral role in the new 170 liberal/civil rights groups’ coalition, Patriots should vehemently expose early the communists and their associations. Millions of younger Americans thanks to the educational system, don’t comprehend that communism calls for the overthrow of democratic governments as the United States and abolishing their Constitution.
